Not really. Jerry looks on Jason almost like a son. You’re right in that this is painful for Jerry but not for ego reasons. I still won’t be surprised if Jason is retained either as HC or a made up “Special Assistant” position.
Exactly, he looks at Jason as a son. From everything I hear he loves Jason and it would crush him to fire him. Not a good reason, I have cared for people I had to fire, but I did it. I went home and cried afterward, and did not eat or sleep for a few days, but I did it.
I know how he feels. Even though I don’t care for the man, I hate it when anyone has to fire someone, especially someone they care about
